Ramsey will join the Serie A club in the summer on a free transfer, having run his contract with Arsenal down to its final six months, and will earn a reported £400,000 per week before tax.
The 28-year-old joined Arsenal from Cardiff City as an 18-year-old, and went on to become a central figure of the team, scoring their most important goal of the past decade – against Hull City to bring their nine-year trophy drought to an end.
